2012 MERCEDES-BENZ E E350 4-MATIC

The vehicle is listed by the auction with a “PERMIT NO BRAND – UNFIT” condition and a primary-damage classification of “FRONT END.” Stage 1 reports that the visible severe front-end collision damage supports the “FRONT END” classification. The permit/no-brand/unfit title condition cannot be verified from exterior and interior photographs alone. The most significant damage is concentrated at the driver-side front. The hood is severely crushed, with extensive buckling, deep creases, collapsed sections, and a front corner folded downward. The driver-side headlamp lens and housing are cracked and displaced, with surrounding components broken and gaps exposed. The driver-side grille and adjacent chrome trim are bent and displaced, while the front bumper and fascia show cracking, torn edges, and displaced sections around the headlamp. The driver-side front fender and the panel junction near the hood and headlamp are deformed, with irregular gaps. A moderate inward dent and pronounced crease are also visible on the rear portion of the driver-side rear door, extending toward the rear wheel-arch area. According to the VIN decode, this is a 2012 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E350 4MATIC sedan, equipped with all-wheel drive, a 3.5-liter six-cylinder gasoline engine, and manufactured in Germany. The VIN data also identifies front driver and passenger airbags, side airbags for the first and second rows, seat-belt pretensioners, and direct tire-pressure monitoring. The provided findings do not establish the condition of the engine, transmission, suspension, steering, cooling system, structural components, airbags, or other mechanical and electrical systems. A comprehensive physical inspection and diagnostic assessment are recommended before purchase.
